Toby and the Princess

A young princess overstays her playtime at a neighboring castle. She chooses the shorter path home, which leads her through the Dark Woods. She is captured by a witch and taken to the witch's cottage. She is made to sit on the steps while the witch prepares supper. An owl witnesses her plight and distracts the witch, allowing the princess to escape. The witch pursues the princess, who is led by the owl though the Dark Woods. The King rescues the princess. She learns her lesson and will always be mindful of the time needed for her return trip when she is away.
